    The nurse is performing disability assessment.

    Disability assessment is a component of the primary survey, which is performed to evaluate the consciousness level, which may get affected due to a neurologic injury. In the mnemonic AVPU, the A indicates alert, V indicates a response to voice, P indicates a response to pain, and U indicates unresponsiveness.
